Weigh Inn Thurso
Cons:

We came here with an open mind after reading several bad reviews. All I can say is that they are accurate reviews of this hotel. The photos on this site are of the main hotel building, we stayed in wooden shacks at the back. The breakfast was poor, and the buffet food containers were all nearly empty. When I asked, I was told that they had fed 120 people that day and we should have been there earlier. I put in a complaint with reception, but never heard anything further.

La seule nuitée atroce lors de notre séjour en Ecosse
Cons:

Le personnel n’est pas très aimable parle très vite alors qu'on lui demande de ralentir.
Nous avons assisté a une scène exceptionnelle au restaurant. La serveuse s'est trompée de table quand je lui ai dit que ce n'était notre commande alors que mon fils avait croqué dans son hamburger elle a donné nos assiettes a la table derrière nous. Nous avons été choqués mais moins que les italiens derrière nous.
Au moment de payer l'addition elle avait disparu et personne ne savait plus rien

Pros:

Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis war sehr gut.

Cons:

Leider roch es im Zimmer stark nach Rauch. Der Boden im Bad war dreckig und mit diversen Flecken übersäht. Wir fühlten uns im Zimmer nicht sonderlich wohl. Das Frühstück war sodann auch nicht wirklich überzeugend und das Personal äusserst unfreundlich.
